Plagiarism!?



What is plagiarism? No, I mean what does it do? The owner would be under-credited because of no citing of works? Probably. Stealing and owning it. A fast way to say it. Do not be alarmed if you do not cite anything or link anything when you use a picture or anything, just do not say that it is yours. Safer to use a disclaimer though.


Plagiarism is a huge problem in our society today. It's not just on written works now, since the Internet was made, it became such a problem for country development. Some senators would even take lines from speeches of other people. It's basically stealing someones intellectual property.

The Internet is a scary place. More than you could ever think. It has all the material that people can not easily take. Plagiarism affects the people who might make their work for a living. If you steal their material, you are somehow stealing their money. Ideas are being stolen everyday and the people who originally own it have no say because their names are not recognized. The higher people will always have the advantage. It will always be. It's the way of the jungle.

Plagiarism is a crime yet people take it lightly actually. The people should be informed that it is. People are highly responsive to incentives, the government should take actions actually. Now, why do I sound so serious? Because I am. I have a couple of acquaintances who got under-credited. They didn't do anything because they couldn't.

Plagiarism is actually a hard problem to stop. It is actually tricky since changing just a few words can actually pass of as "rewording." It is also hard to detect if people are actually "pros". Since the Internet was made, people have more freedom. They should know the difference from right or wrong.
They should know the difference of stealing and using inspiration.

  2. Plagiarism is one of the most absurd problems in our world. I agree that people should be informed that plagiarism is a crime that shouldn't be ignored. We should somehow stop people do these things hahahahahahahahaha.

  4. Plagiarism is indeed an inferior thing in our economy, it is but a mere disease that most people do. Your post about this is very concise but the idea of plagiarism being a crime left me a question in my mind, is it really a crime? as you can see, taking ideas today is very vast, nothing seems to be original today and everyone is now a prey to the eyes of a predator. For me, plagiarism is now a disease that is spreading at the lazy mind of the people, we can always keep the idea of your references but do cite some disclaimer or copyrights. This blog post is really nice.

  5. I know that you've plagiarized something already before, sorry to say that but I just know all of us just know it to ourselves. Great power comes from great responsibility so be like spidey. Don't get chased and just pun up your life.
